TwinWord

What is it?
Chrome Extension that allows you to search a doc, webpage, PDF, etc for more than one word at a time. It will also search for related terms if you click the magnifying glass. Results are displayed so you can see how many times it found each word.

How can I use it in class?
Use this tool to take your Find button to the next level. Twinword is really useful for searching larger articles because it does not rely on one interpretation of the word you are searching. For example, you can search a PDF for the words vote and voter at the same time. If that’s not enough, clicking the magnifying glass will search for those terms plus election, ballot, and campaign.
